Wrightbus

Andrew Dismore: The manufacturer of the Routemaster bus Wrightbus has now gone into administration. What is the impact likely to be on TfL?

The Mayor: Please see my answer to question Mayor's Question 2019/19618.

London’s not-spots

Leonie Cooper: Can you list the places in London which will receive funding from your new £10 million investment from the Strategic Investment Fund (SIF) to tackle not-spots?

The Mayor: The £10m Strategic Investment Fund (SIF) announcement I made on 24thOctober to tackle not-spots and address the gap in full fibre projects in London will prioritise boroughs not in receipt of other grant funding via London Council’s Strategic Investment Pool (SIP) or the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport’s (DCMS) Local Full Fibre Networks (LFFN) funding. This funding completes a London-wide approach to grant investment in full fibre and will seek to make areas with poor coverage more commercially viable by connecting buildings to a fibre network. The priority boroughs that my Connected London team will work with are Bromley, Croydon, Hackney, Islington, Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton, and Wandsworth.
